"I think it’s a strange concept to think that they’re in conflict with each other. Just because a work of art has a political statement, it should not be considered an enemy of art. At the same time, just because a film is not making a political statement, that film should not be ignored. Even if we are to make a brilliant political statement, if it’s not expressed artfully enough, it would just be propaganda. So what I want to say is that art and politics are not concepts that are in conflict with each other, as long as they are artistically expressed, they are valuable."

Does anyone actually disagree with this?
In a world where _everything_ is political, of course it isn’t possible to separate art from politics, and one shouldn’t try.
All art is political
The only people that scream “KEEP POLITICS OUT OF ART/MOVIES” are the ones that don’t like the opinion of an artist.
